Hello,

I recently upgraded my computer, and it has been randomly rebooting ever since. It can take anywhere from minutes to a week+ for the automatic reboots to occur.

My new specs:
Motherboard: Asus Crosshair VIII Hero (no Wi-Fi)
CPU: AMD Ryzen 9 3900x
RAM: G.Skill 32 (2x16) GB DDR4 3200 MHz
GPU: EVGA GTX 1080
Storage: 2 TB NVMe M.2 SSD (OS), 512 GB SATA SSD, 1 TB
PSU: Asus 1200W 80 Plus Platinum
OS: Windows 10 Pro 64-bit

Old specs (no reboots):
Motherboard: Asus P8Z77-V
CPU: Intel Core i7-3770K
RAM: Kingston 16 (2x8) GB DDR3 1600 MHz
All else same as above, except no NVMe

What I have done:
  • Run 4 passes of MemTest86 with no errors.
  • Run sfc /scannow with no errors.
  • Run DISM with no corruption detected.
WhoCrashed shows the following from the memory dump of the latest reboot event:

On Tue 17-Sep-19 01:08:55 your computer crashed or a problem was reported
crash dump file: C:\WINDOWS\Minidump\091719-16218-01.dmp
This was probably caused by the following module: ntoskrnl.exe (nt+0x1C10A0)
Bugcheck code: 0x162 (0xFFFFD4026BC3A080, 0xFFFFF80568E64A20, 0xFFFFFFFF, 0x0)
Error: KERNEL_AUTO_BOOST_INVALID_LOCK_RELEASE
file path: C:\WINDOWS\system32\ntoskrnl.exe
product: Microsoft® Windows® Operating System
company: Microsoft Corporation
description: NT Kernel & System
Bug check description: This indicates that a lock tracked by AutoBoost was released by a thread that did not own the lock.
This appears to be a typical software driver bug and is not likely to be caused by a hardware problem.
The crash took place in the Windows kernel. Possibly this problem is caused by another driver that cannot be identified at this time.


Does anyone have any ideas?

Thank you so much!

Yes, fresh install of Windows 10 Pro 64-bit (although currently reverted to my old installation, since the fresh install had the same reboot problem), and recently flashed BIOS to version 1001 (latest version for Asus C8H), which did not affect the random reboots.
